Everything seems back to normal now. The Sierra update changed my Energy Saver settings so it was just a matter of switching them back.

I hope this thread helps someone else

Thanks safihre.

Yes, it does seem that Sierra changed my Energy Saver settings, and that's the likely cause for these issues. I'll give it a few days and post back.

Cheers

Hi all. I recently upgraded to MacOS Sierra on my Mac Mini server, and SAB 1.1.0's behaviour has suddenly become a bit odd -- specifically, downloads become somehow "delayed" or put to sleep. I can't quite figure it out, but I'm guessing the error lies with Sierra, and not SAB. Early this ...

Thanks Shypike. I'll find a workaround

Hi all. Some TV shows push to my SAB queue with the year in the file name. For those shows, I need SAB to include the year in parentheses in the show name when sorting/processing. I can't figure out the syntax for doing this, though. Here's the current syntax I'm using: %sn/Season %s/%dn.%ext I trie...

No worries, I'll just delete those files manually. Thanks shypike

Just following up on this.

Is it possible to have SAB automagically delete these leftover pieces after a successful download? I'm assuming I can add the extension to SAB's cleanup list, but I don't actually know what type of extension these leftover files are.

Agreed.

After some testing last night, I noticed that iTunes will keep playing after the machine goes asleep. Perhaps a temporary workaround will be to let iTunes keep playing while muted to prevent sleep when on battery power.

Actually, now that I see those screenshots head to head, maybe I'll try enabling power nap on battery power.

Since upgrading to Yosemite, I'm having issues with my MacBook Pro going to sleep while downloading. This doesn't happen if my Mac is plugged in ... it only happens when I'm running on battery power. Has anyone else experienced this issue and solved it? I'm guessing it's a problem on the Mac side, n...

I use UsenetServer, with backups from Tweaknews and Blocknews, and I have few problems.

I think what's more important these days is a fast connection and automation ... use Sickbeard or something else to grab your shows automatically (and quickly).

Thanks Shypike.

Recently, more and more of my SAB downloads have "leftover" pieces in the folder after the file is successfully downloaded and repaired. For example, this is what the folder for a recent download looks like, with five leftover pieces: http://i58.tinypic.com/316so5u.png Am I safe to delete ...

thx

HFS+, correct. The disk is 250GB total.

How can I disable free space check? I thought there'd be a box to uncheck, but all I see is "minimum free space for temporary download folder" ...
